Patricia Anne McCroskey 77, Pleasant Hope, MO. went home to be with the Lord, Monday, September 20, 2021. Patricia was born in Springfield, MO. on February 4, 1944, to Alvin V. and Suela May (Wells) Rook. She was a member of Crossway Baptist Church and was saved at a young age. Pat loved farming, growing flowers, sewing, and spending time with her family. She never knew how many were coming to eat until we sat down at the table, and she could pull a meal together in short order because she loved people eating at her home. She desired that all her children and grandchildren be involved in church. Everyone was always welcome at her home, regardless if she had known them 2 minutes or a lifetime.
Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, a sister and her husband: Barbara and Jack Durbin, a grandchild, Isaac Lane Hobson, and two brothers-in-law: David McCroskey and Dean McCroskey and his wife, Alice. She is survived by her husband of 58 years, Terry McCroskey, three sons: Brent McCroskey and his wife, Kathy, Dwayne McCroskey and his wife, Susan, and Tom McCroskey and his wife, Lori, and her daughter: Cherie Hobson and her husband, Bob, her grandchildren: Johnathan, Charity, Kali, Koriah, Levi, and Joseph, her sister: Janet Doty, her sisters-in-law: Nova McCroskey and Velma McCroskey and her nieces and nephews: Robin, DeeDee, Wesley and Lorie.
